Shoulder Rehab To Keep Penny Off Mound

Due to shoulder trouble, Brad Penny may not throw a single spring training game, according to the Vero Beach Press-Journal. While spring training hasn't been ruled out, the plan is to get Penny throwing by April 5.

Uh oh.


Comments:
Something isn't right in this story. No other paper has Penny sidelined until April.
From the Dodgers' site: "Injury update: Tracy said pitcher Brad Penny's first bullpen session will probably be Tuesday or Wednesday."
From the Times: " He will be on a strict pitch count throughout the spring, with the goal to bring him to 90 to 100 pitches by early April."
From the Daily News: "Penny is expected to catch up with the rest of the staff by Opening Day..."
 
Icaros -- given the Dodgers consistent hemming and hawing about when Penny was going to reappear on the mound, I feel every justification in the world for pessimism.
